The evening will pay tribute to the leadership that helped to build the newest and most elegant venue in the region. ![]() Helen and Jimmy Carlos Chaired by Helen and Jimmy Carlos, this is sure to be a fun event! The evening will feature beautiful décor by A Legendary Event, a delicious meal prepared by our own Executive Chef, MG Farris, followed by a live concert in the theater.
